Ear Piercing Care


Question Posted Friday June 15 2007, 9:22 pm

Hi. I just got my ears pierced (Yeah I know most people get thst done really young but I'm different) anywayz i read on the little leaflet thing that you have to keep the earrings they first put into your ear for 6months?? At the beggining of summer I want to know if it would be ok to just switch earrings anyway?? I got them pierced at the beggining of summer so the earrings wouldn't have been changed for 3 months

Well actually you need to keep them in for 6 WEEKS, and then after that you can change them. but they muct be posts, and you have to wear posts for at least 6 months. after those 6 months you can take them out, and not have to put them back in. (well evenually your gonna have to so they don't close up) ;)

they say the 6 months thing b/c thats how long until your ear heals oover and keeps the hole...
if you take it outr early, your risking the hole close up

when i got my ears pierced, i had to keep them in for 6 weeks. it probably would be ok if you switched them- but make sure they're in for at least 3 weeks before you take them out and switch. i think you'll be ok. :]

I guess you could if you wanted. But if your ears are still tender then you might want to lay off. If you do then don't switch them alot. Maybe once or something, since you shouldn't be taking them out to begin with. But I got my belly pieced I was suppost to leave it in for 6-8 weeks but Ive taken it out & switched it already and it's only been 3 weeks. Mainly, make sure you keep cleaning them. If they hurt too much to take out just leave them alone. Hope this helped
